Hacker Deterrent 2.1 Beta is available now for Windows 7 & 8. The Windows 10 beta version will be available January 15. This release offers seven new powerful features:

Redundant Servers: In case of a server failure, Hacker Deterrent 2.1 seamlessly cuts over to a redundant server for uninterrupted use. When a redundant server is being used, the blinking Health Monitor dot turns green. The dot will return to its normal blue color once the primary server is back online.

Denial-of-Service Mode: If hackers launch a Denial-of-Service attack against our entire data center, Hacker Deterrent 2.1 automatically enters into Denial-of-Service Mode. This mode will allow you to browse the internet while maintaining all your previously blocked settings. When the Denial-of-Service attack is over, any new sites you are visiting will instantly be color-coded and managed. In Denial-of-Service Mode, the blinking Health Monitor dot turns yellow. The dot will return to its normal blue color when the Denial-of-Service attack is over.
